very early pregnancy symptoms?

Hi everyone, is it possible to have symptoms of pregnancy just 5 days after conception? This is/would be #2 and with #1 I didn't have any symptoms until a few weeks after...a pregnancy test came out negative but I'm convinced I am pregnant! Now at day 8, I'm having lots of cramps. Is that normal (I'm worried it could mean I'm going to miscarry!).

Definitely. I had symptoms within 5 - 7 days of conception (implantation) and a positive result a few days later. In that first week of waiting to test, I had painful backaches/cramping. I think it's too soon for you to test, and while the cramps may just mean your period is coming, at this point I don't think you have to worry about miscarriage.
